Glamorous Trash: A Celebrity Memoir Podcast

We revisit a previously subscriber-only episode where Chelsea and Wes Perry bravely swim the waters of early 2000s Playboy culture with Holly Madison’s 2015 memoir “Down The Rabbit Hole.” Come on to our house for the tea on how gross the Playboy Mansion really was, the unhinged financial arrangements in place for Hef’s “girlfriends,” and the real jaw-dropper of the episode… Hugh Hefner’s unexpected hobby.
